7 preseason games, 82 regular season games and up to 28 playoff games , that's a lot of innings that need to be eaten up. Just like every pitching staff needs a knucklballer or a long relief workhorse, the Celtics could use a 6'11'' vet with good hands, a nice shooting touch, good free throw shooter, solid citizen and an ABOVE AVERAGE REBOUNDER , YES I JUST SAID IT, TROY MURPHY IS A GOOD REBOUNDER.

He's not the future, but with a full training camp and an off season of conditioning , I predict Troy Murphy will crack the rotation and contribute to ANY playoff team he signs with. I'm sure the Lakers or the Knicks would love to have him.
